A place to remember, discuss, get information, etc for all our favourite 80s toys.

Please try to read the rules before posting to avoid being offended if your post is removed. The rules have been established together as a community to reflect how we want this sub to be represented.

Please remember that this is a sub for toys from the 80s. So, relax dude.

We're all here to enjoy that brief flutter of nostalgia and reminisce on the joy these toys brought us. Don't be a Biff... be a Marty.

Have an issue, question, or concern about how the sub is being moderated? Had a post removed? Reach out. I'm all for changing the sub for the betterment of its users.

Really stocked to have you all here.

Be excellent to each other.

MOD Should we allow posts of more modern '80s toys'? (Repaints, Customs, Re-Productions)

2 Upvotes

Sorry I haven't got around to this until now, but I want to ask the community what they would like to see in the sub.

There is already a flair users can tag their posts with if it is a RE-PRO but should we just *stop* these kinds of posts in general?

I am ok with it personally, (so long as it fits the rules) but this sub is for the members, not the mods. Keen to hear everyone's opinions.


UPDATE

Ok, well, the results are in.

I will update the rules to reflect the direction and keep an eye on posts that don't comply. Existing posts for re-pros can stay, currently, but I will look at cleaning up the sub in the future.

If we aren't happy with the outcome or you feel you didn't get a chance to vote, we can look at another vote down the track.

Thank you to those who contributed and voted :)

My brother found this score at a shop today and I nabbed it up. All are complete minus one gattling gun tip for Rex. My brother did have the Rex when we were kids. Rex's armor has gone from silver to bronze. Im not sure if that's a known issue. I assume it is.

Somewhere in the 80s Cowabanga! Found my old Turtles Goops frisbee!

93 Upvotes

Loved the Turtles as a kid, and Raphael was always my favorite. Somehow my parents got me Michelangelo though. Didn't matter, it was a Turtle and I played so much with it! It is still flexible, though not as much as I can remember at least. Some wear n tear but that's to be expected.

Found some info on this:
